H. Miller Senior Member Monaco Owners Club Texas Boomers Club Join Date: Jan 2009 Posts: 961	Our diesel generator "runs out of gas" at approx. 50% of primary tank though the operators manual says 25%. Wonder how to extend or adjust the generator diesel "pick-up"? __________________ Hal Miller '04 Beaver Santiam PRT40 '04 Saturn Vue - US Gear Brake - Blue Ox tow 4 "girls" (3 Irish Setters - Retriever)

Is it via the fuel gage or an accurate fill-up, or some other measurement? Coach fuel gages are notoriously off in their measurements. I do not know a Beaver coach. On the coaches I do know, one would need to drop the fuel tank and install a new or altered pickup tube for the generator. __________________ Gary 2005 Newmar KSDP 3910, The Avatar Is Many Times Around The USA Nobody Knows Your Coach Like Somebody Who Owns One Just Like Yours
